All our clients either create a resume or an activities sheet to submit along with their application. However, we know it can sometimes be hard to know what information to include and how best to present it so that it makes the most impact. We can review your resume or activities sheet to provide you this advice and help set you apart from other applicants.

Recommendations are a very important part of every application! If you are unsure about how to pick your recommenders and how to approach them, then we can provide you expert advice on this. We will also work with you to decide whether or not you should consider sending in supplemental recommendations and if so how you should approach your recommenders to do this.

Not sure on how to focus your essay or how to make your points in a more impactful manner? We will brainstorm with you to help you identify interesting stories from your past.

A consultant will review an application that unfortunately got you a �ding�. He or she will share with you the probable reasons for the ding and advise you on the best way to utilize this information going forward � for future applications, interviews or waitlists that you may receive.

Confused about how a Personal Statement in the U.K. application process is different to the Personal Essays in the U.S. application process?

We understand how you need to approach the Personal Statement and will work with you to present yourself in the way you should.
